Not With Silver Or Gold

"You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your ancestors, not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without defect or blemish." 1 Peter 1:18-19

All too often; way too many people, have this mistaken idea that just because they have brought their tithes before the altar that they have "paid their dues" and will receive their places in the heavenly home.

Know this: your debt has been paid in full; but, not by you. You cannot earn or buy your place in the kingdom of God. There is only one offering that does that. That is the offering that Jesus made for us when he hung on that cross as a ransom for all.

Thanks be to God for the offering that was given for us in Jesus the Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

God's Peace - Pr. J
